Why would they want to chance us being bought off like we are now, negates the whole reason for demanding this paragraph.

And I know line 6, which is untouched from the current PWA was what Slow said was where the in category requirement came from. But line 6 is line 6, line X is not a subparagraph of 6. And line 6 had to specificy that it was category , line X is missing that specific term... for a reason.

You're wrong. Admit it and move on. The MEC negotiated the restriction in place specifically to limit the amount of OE trips pulled. You would have been treated no differently in the situation you describe than you are now--except you'd be making 8% more.

Please state your source on this. When did the MEC negotiate this?

C2015 road shows. They negotiated it as part of the agreement related to OE trip pulls to LIMIT the number of trips pulled. It's in the road show slides (slide 91) too.

I see where it was in the DALPA slides but I can't find it in the TA language so where is the legally binding document that spells out the limitation? Are you assuming there was a side agreement or was there some communication from DALPA that referenced it?

Admit it, it's not in the contract so it doesn't mean ****.

BTW, I live well on what I make now. There are not only work rule issues but scope issues as well. The TA was a disaster. Admit it and move on.

You're touting the TA sales job, which completely downplayed it was FULL of concessions--everywhere. I heard the same line from YES guys that your stating here. Problem is, the TA had something else in it. Not what was being sold.

I think we're tired of our iron clad language which leads to: "DUH.... We didn't think they'd do that"

Move along little boy.

Not exactly the same. DAL A350's will have 20-25 more seats and 20-25% less fuel burn.

There are many contractually enforceable items that are not in the TA. At the road shows, the Negotiating Committee referenced the contractually binding letter that limited the OE pulls to in-base OEs. Don't believe me. Call Contract Admin or your own reps. Ask them if it's routine to have these types of agreements.

It's unfortunate that guys here wish to rewrite the history of this agreement.

You're wrong. Don't believe me. Ask your own reps or Contract Admin about how the Negotiators notes and clarifying letters are a routine part or our contractual enforcement. I showed that you don't know the details of the agreement you helped vote down, and your embarrassed. I get it. It's human nature, and it takes a big man to admit he's wrong, but I know you can do it. 20,000+ posts on here. Impressive. You're bound to be wrong once in a while.

Yes but they normally come out over the years as unforeseen situations arise.

If this situation is known prior to the TA even being voted on why not just put it in the contract language?

Call me skeptical on this, very skeptical.
